Tuesday July 20th, 2010: Another Great show weekend for the Minos puppies!!!!
In Piteå, Sweden Rex Ventors Rakel striked again! Swedisch CAC and BOB!!! You are amazing!
In Tollarp, Sweden seven of Asla and Minos puppies were at their first show. All behaved very well in the ring, and all of them recieved great critiques with Honours Prize! Ghali Great Dawn "Yeba" was BOB and Ghali Great Dillon "Chimani was BOS !

Yeba then had to compete against all the BOB winning puppies, they were 40 in all, the ...judge selected 14 and Yeba was one of them. Then the judge selected her top five and Yeba was thanked off.

In Finland Asla and Minos son Ghali Great Diamond "Duke" was placed as 2nd best puppy male with Honours Prize!

Biggest Congratulations to you all!
Monday July 12th, 2010: I'm really proud! Yesterday Minos daughter Rex Ventors Rakel became BOS with CAC and CACIB at International show in Gällivare!! Biggest Congratulations Anne-Karin & sweet Rakel! :))

Finally a lot of picuters from our vacation/World Dog Show 2010 in Denmark! We had an fantastic week in Denmark!! :) Gallery 2010!
Friday July 9th, 2010: Time for some updates! Minos will be in Ridgeback Register from the World Dog Show 2010! :))
Wednesday June 30th, 2010: We had an amazing week in Denmark!! We started off with World Dog Show 2010 in Herning. Minos got "Excellent" in a big Champion class and I'm pleased with the result!

The following day we entered the World Dog Show Rhodesian Ridgeback Specialty 2010 in Sunds. After a 2ond place in the Open class, Minos was placed (after a lot of thought from the judge and one dog from the CAC) beautifully at a 3rd place in best male!! Really nice judge Ann Woodrow's, open comment about Minos was "He's got a head to die for!" and I can't do anything else than agree! ;) Pictures from our fantastic holiday in Danmark will be up soon! For now you can have a look at Kennel African Hunter's homepage!

While in Denmark I've got the great news that Minos son Rex Ventors Ramses was placed 2ond best male one from the CAC (he won the intermediate class) at the Swedish Specialty!!! Biggest Congratulations Sofia & Ramses!!! :) I'm truly proud of you!
Sunday June 13th, 2010: We have been attending the International Dogshow Swedish Winner 2010 in Avesta. Judge Mr Stefan Stefic from Slovakia didn't think that Minos was his cup of tea... :( But he thought that Minos got a really nice character! :) Always something! :) It was really nice to meet a lot of friends though!

I'm Australia at the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of Queensland Speciality, Minos son Ch Rex Ventors Rare Edition aka Ruger striked AGAIN! Ruger was awarded Reserve Challenge Dog (second best male)! Great job Kerrie and Ruger!! :)

Rugers critique: "One of the better held toplines on the move and when stacked, also presents himself well when free stood, good front with good depth of chest, would prefer a little more forechest, but good lay of shoulder, nice body shape, good topline, enough angles at the rear."

Here in Sweden Minos & Asla puppies (the Amazing Nine) had their second puppy meet at Storegårds Dog Park! :) I've got some pictures and I just love to see them all grow! Have a look at Kennel Ghalis homepage!
Sunday May 30th, 2010: What a day! Went to the RR Specialty at Årsta Castle with no expectations at all!

And the result of this GREAT day became:
Minos son Rex Ventors Ramses ended up best intermediate male CQ and then 2ond best male!!! I'm really, really proud of you Sofia and Ramses!

Minos and I ended up best champion male and 4th best male! :)

And to top it off Minos lovely brother African Hunter's Amazing Bolero - Wesley ended up 2ond best champion male and reserve best male!! :)) Biggest Congratulations Liselott & Wes!! And I'm sorry for the tears Liselott...! Love u! :)
Saturday May 29th, 2010: Sweet Minos puppy Rex Ventors Rolex and his family were on Swedish TV this morning! :) Here you can see a very, very short flash of beautiful Rolex on TV4s Nyhetsmorgon!
Wednesday May 26th, 2010: Time is precious! Right now I have just focused on my family, work and Minos of course! There has been no time to update the homepage but now I have a LOT to tell!

Let's start off with the bad news... Unfortunately Connie isn't in whelp :( The AI wasn't successful and I'm very sorry for that! But maybe that was not meant to be, who knows? Instead Jana at Kennel Helya Ridge is going to make a try with Connies sweet daughter Loren and Minos! Let's cross our fingers for that instead!

Now to the other GREAT news!
Another Minos puppy is HD and ED free! Daughter Rex Ventors Rizla hips grade A and elbows 0/0!!! Biggest Congratulations owner Radko Bürger and breeder Veronica Thorén!

This weekend Rex Ventors Rakel showed her front paws at Norwegian specialty! She won the "big" CAC and placed bb-3! This was Rakel's third CAC but she needs to turn two years of age before able to gain her title (just as her sister Rex Ventors Rizla). Big Congratulations Rakel & Anne-Karin! :)
